Hi everybody!

My name is Michael Lankes, I am from Germany and new to this list. I read
the posts for a while now and I want to refer to two topics, the "whats so
special about 3D, look out of the window!" and "shutter speed". I have to
say that I ordered a stereo lens system from pentax (thats low end, I know,
no flames please) a week ago and havent received it yet (maybe someone has
experience with this thing). I guess that if you combine highspeed shutter
with stereo images there could be some amazing results you normally can not
see with your eyes. As the pentax thing is a small unit put in front of a
normal camera which then puts the two images on one, I guess you can use
the highest speed your camera does (1/2000s and higher), so you could
really freeze smoke/fire, waterfalls and something like that, which our
eyes (or brain) are not capable of seeing, since they are not fast enough.
Also has anybody of you experimented with slow shutter speeds (more than a
second), which should capture movements in 3D?
I am already excited to experiment with these things and I do agree that
the more experimental and artificial things seem to be much more
interesting than just a realistic shot.
